did you check /etc/services? I just installed RH 6.2 and the next day my
network backup system couldn't talk to my linux host. Turns out that RH 6.2
just copies the existing /etc/services to /etc/services.rpmsave and writes a
new one there, with no regard for any modifications that might have been made
to the pre-existing version. It doesn't appear to mess with /etc/inetd.conf,
however.
